This is a great effort. It has limitations, but BRAVO vikbez for doing what Google should have put in the options.

Love this extension; really saves me time for most searches. But I'm having issues turning it off. Right now, the extension button is white, which means Verbatim mode should be "off." However, google is only searching in Verbatim mode. Because of the nature of the tool--which forces the webpage into Verbatim--when it's "on," you can't get the page to show all results; it will just jump back to verbatim. So when the button isn't working as designed, rather is "always on," that's a huge problem... Show more

I love this extension, but I HATE that I cannot turn it off temporarily at the top of a search. There is a dropdown and I can select "All results" instead of "Verbatim," but the page ALWAYS reloads with the Verbatim results (so there is the option, but it doesn't work). Since it is a pain to go into settings and turn it off, I end up switching to another browser to conduct a regular search and it is a huge pain.
